This was proper racing by the drivers .... I never noticed any of the problems you noted as the different strategies provided the excitement

I rather disagree.

Short of being a Hamilton fan there was minimal excitement.

Therefore we were left to watch:

The track - Ultra fast and thrilling? Nope... boringThe cars - Fat, wide V12 powered beast? Nope... boringThe drivers - Exciting personalities? Nope. Awkward conservations rather.Aquapark - Yes, the most exciting park of the race weekend. I don't see the main straight being taken with a 1200 degree spin the way the big slide can be.

watching Kimi push was pretty amazing. couldnt watch but kept an eye on the time when Vettel was pushing which was pretty furious too.
i dislike Hungary and i like action on the track but that does not mean overtaking alone. it was tense till the last lap. this is the hand we have been dealt with the season. nought we can do.

I'm no fan of DRS as such, but have suffered so many boring races/seasons with hardly any overtaking that I am willing to put up with it until they finally (if they ever do) sort the aero side of things out.

Much prefer DRS, KERS and Pirelli tyres over Max Moseley or anybody else telling me I should treat F1 as a chess match. No thanks.

hungarian gp : DRS not working at all , tyres last very well , turbulent air destroying any chance of on track overtaking , all the overtaking happened on pit stops . did u enjoy that one ?

Except Grosjean said it was impossible to overtake because following Hamilton closely made him slide and lose temp in his tyres. So it's got nothing to do with the track but everything to do with the Pirellis narrow operating window AGAIN.. I for one enjoy seeing track variations and have always liked the characteristics of Hungary. It would be boring if every race was on a Tilke track.. Abu Dhabi is horrendously boring.. Give me Suzuka, Monza, Spa, Montreal and Melbourne any day.

Up to lap 65 I hoped that there would be a freakish tyre-thing happening, but then I understood that it was just a boring race. Even Maldonado's crash was a disappointment!

So you were bored because the drivers were engaged in a 69-lap tactical battle without the instant and constant gratification of artificial Pirelli and DRS overtakes? You are truly the target audience for modern F1.

This is closer to the F1 I'd like to see. I'd love to see refuelling back with high tyre-wear so the crossover between pitstops would be more difficult to predict - but still less artificial than the stupid DRS wing.

I'd also like to see the downforce reduced to mid-1990's level at least, because drivers could make a bigger difference those days. Now you can see a guy like Maldonado take pole I mean wtf... the car's are way too easy to drive on low fuel because all the downforce and everything.

DRS, Hembery's tires and similar gimmicks cannot compensate for, and remedy a wrong turn technical regulations has taken about a decade or so under watch of MM, thus a clean sheet of paper and new approach under a new CA would be more than helpful, and good place to start.
Technical development has to correspond with tracks we race on. Second misguided notion is, that we are all equal, so must be entities and individuals in F1 - an environment where rich and famous come to play, and strive on opulence and excesses. That’s what defines F1 shine. I do not agree often with Williams, but we both are on the same page over this one. Purity could mean a lot of things to a lot of people, but for me today merely it means that driver makes racing decisions, not pitwall, and drives his equipment at its and his full potential. Nothing less, nothing more. It's not too much to ask, one would think.

Well as a Lewis fan i was relieved that it wasnt possible to overtake so enjoyed the race, but as a spectacle obviously it was boring on track but there was still some interesting tactics to play out, when to pit, what tyres to use? It wasnt a gimme that Lewis was going to win given that he could have lost position after the pitstops and would his tyres last out in his final long last stint. It was said before the race that Pirelli were being conservative with the tyres and thats how it panned out with no one really having any tyres issues, this coupled with a track were you couldnt pass even with DRS must have been very frustrating for fans of other drivers and personally i think having tracks were its not possible to pass is not good for F1.

To be fair there was Perez elegantly show the way to Nando as well LOL

That was one of the classier overtakes yesterday. But the DRS thing didn't do a damn thing. As long as you controlled the grip in the last turn, you could go seconds slower in the other sectors and there was no way to pass. Di Resta excluded.

Tactics were good, I have to say, but it seems F1 has a real problem. Monaco was just about the same story where everybody tried to hold the tyres together for the whole lap except the main straight.

The nature of the racing at Hungary has always been down to the track layout more than anything else, and as pointed out the Lego racer gimmicks could not even impact that fact. I'll take the odd more strategical race as we always have done, and rather not see the gimmicks thanks.

I watched the first half of the race with Fast Forward (4x) on time-shifted IPTV and I assure you it was very enjoyable. Unfortunately I caught up with the live broadcast around lap 39, and then almost died of boredom, until the only memorable part.

I think the best thing about the race was the lack of undercutting! Undercutting requires little skill. Here we atleast witnessed drivers like Kimi banging in superb lap after lap to move up in the race. Great to watch.

He or she doesn't even do that in Formula Renault 2000 and indeed all the better ones like your Vettel, Kubica, Alonso, Trulli etc don't even do that in go-karts as they sign with big name professional go-kart teams.
